Here’s my homemade version of treacle toffee – the taste is a million times better than any shop-bought version and easily worth the little amount of effort needed, making this an impressive offering for Bonfire Night.

You will need a candy/jam thermometer which you can buy locally for around £5.

This recipe is best attempted when you have no distractions as the boiling toffee can seriously burn – never leave unattended whilst cooking.
